Born on July 30, 1982 in Savalo, which is where she is from, in Collines County in central Bénin, Ms. Juliette GBEDASSI had the opportunity to attend school. She abandoned it in the 8th grade and then learned dressmaking. After earning her apprenticeship certificate, she went to Cotonou, where she got training in computers in order to be a data processor. After a year in this profession, she switched and got started doing commerce in cosmetics. To this, she added the sale of beverages: beer and soft drinks. With this second loan, she would like not only to boost her inventory of hair extensions with a supply of new types but to get supplies of all kinds of liqueurs.
